Light boxes with acetate drawing prints

The body is a map and a mystery — the closer we get,
the more we lose ourselves in it.
Fragments of the body become revealed territory — skin magnified to the point of abstraction, where texture no longer belongs only to the human, but to matter in a state of enigma. The radical expansion breaks with the usual scale of perception and gives us back a new landscape: intimate and, paradoxically, almost alien. The warm light approaches the tone of flesh, evoking heat, presence, pulsation — but also wear, erosion, scarring. The enlarged handprint ceases to be just skin and becomes topography: a silent cartography of who we are inside, even on the surface.
The light boxes appear in an unequal dialogue — one larger, the other smaller — as if the body were always out of sync, always trying to get closer to itself. This tension between the micro and the macro tells us about what we cannot measure: memory, identity, lived experience.

The gesture of showing ceases to be just an exhibition and becomes a sensitive geography — where each line, each furrow, each shadow projects something that is not said, but felt.
Here, the body is not an object, but an expanding territory. A place with no borders between what is seen and what is experienced. What seems like a detail is, after all, a universe. And in this space between the visible and the invisible, between the fragment and the whole, we are invited to observe ourselves as continuous matter — made of time, touch and transformation.
